Summary: A young girl is taken into the Phantomhive household after getting separated from her friends. Ciel doesn't see her as a threat, but the girl already knows Sebastian is a demon. What exactly is she and why does it seem like she can see into the future? What exactly is her motive? SebastianXOC maybe a little CielXOC?
Note: Technically 2nd Kuroshitsuji fanfic, but first one with an OC. R&R Please. I hope I got the characters right...Well I'm basing this off a dream I had, so here you go!
A group of friends were traveling in a dark forest. It wasn't the best time to travel, as it was raining and breezy. The trees were shaking and the wind sounded quite eerie.
"Are you sure this is the right way?" A male asked.
"We should have just stayed at that inn," Another murmured.
"Shut it! I know where we're going!" The lead female shouted, shutting up the two males.
"Really? Because if we keep going this way, we won't be getting anywhere," The other female said. She wasn't really a friend to the others; she was more of an acquaintance.
"What was your name again?" Another boy asked.
"Kyouko," The girl answered. "You know, something bad will happen if you lead us."
"How do you know?" The leader asked, irritated at this new girl.
"Just trust me. I know," Was all she answered. The group continued walking in silence. They trudged through the muddy terrain of this forest. Soon, thunder could be heard and lightning seen not to far away.
"We should stop," Kyouko said.
"You know, you didn't have to come with us," One of the males said who was also tired of her speaking out. Kyouko said nothing, but came to a sudden halt.
"What is it now?" The leader asked.
"I'm not going that way," She said sternly.
"Whatever, find another path then. Come on, boys," The leader said and continued on their way. Kyouko sighed. Why didn't anyone ever listen to her? Oh well. It was their own fault.
The little group headed through the forest without a care in the world. That girl was probably just trying to scare them.
"Hey…don't you think that lightning was pretty close?" A male asked.
"You're just paranoid," the leader answered. Then, the lightning struck a tree near them. It fell over, separated the group in two. They called out for each other, trying to meet up. But, it was impossible. One group had fallen through an old trap left for wild animals, while fallen trees surrounded the other group.
Kyouko heard their cries for help as she walked out of the forest.
"Hmph. I told them not to go that way," She said to herself as she walked away from the forest.
It was around eleven thirty p.m. when Kyouko found herself in front of a huge mansion. She was drenched from all the rain and her clothes were ruined. She sighed again. It was troublesome to get new clothes, especially at this time of night. She didn't need to hope that this mansion owner would take her in she already knew they would.
She walked up to the doors and knocked on them. She heard a young male shout something. The door opened to reveal a stunning man. His hair was short, but in a unique fashion, had red eyes that seemed to pierce the soul, and wore what seemed to be a butler's uniform.
Sebastian looked at the girl in front of him. She had short black hair, almost as short as his, glossy purple eyes that could be hidden by her bangs, and she was wearing some type of tattered and raggy dress, with a cloak over it.
"I'm terribly sorry for this late night intrusion," Kyouko said politely. "But would the master of this household offer me the chance to stay for the night?"
"Please, come in," Sebastian said and held the door open for the girl. She entered and saw a young boy. He had short gray hair, an eye patch covering his right eye, his visible eye was blue, and was wearing some blue aristocrat outfit.
"Young master, this girl wishes to stay the night," Sebastian said to Ciel. He looked Kyouko over. She didn't seem like a noble or a demon.
"Prepare a bath for her. While she's taking one make up the guest room. She can stay there," Ciel ordered.
"Yes, my lord," Sebastian said with a bow. "If you would follow me."
Sebastian led her up to the bathroom. While walking, Kyouko couldn't help but be amazed at how tidy this place was kept.
"Are you the only butler here?" She asked Sebastian.
"No," He answered her, but muttered, "Sometimes it feels like it."
He opened the door for her and she told him she knew how to work a bathtub. Sebastian then left to prepare her room. She took off her wet heavy clothing as she started the water. She made sure it was nice and warm to touch.
She got in and enjoyed the feeling of the water to her skin. It was amazing how the water from outside was the same as the water she used now. Kyouko wouldn't mind staying in such water for a long time, if only her hands didn't get so prunny.
"Excuse me!" A female voice said from behind the door.
"Yes?" Kyouko called out. "You can come in." A maid with huge glasses entered the bathroom
"I have an extra nightgown. I was told to give it you," The maid said, as she seemed lost. She didn't exactly know where to place it.
"Thank you," Kyouko said. "You can put it by the sink if you like." She could already tell the girl was a klutz. She has seen many of her kind before.
"Sorry for bothering you!" She said and scurried off, closing the door behind her. Then, Kyouko heard a crash. That just had to prove that she's clumsy.
Kyouko got out of the tub and put on the extra clothing she was given. It was a simple nightgown, but felt so nice. She guessed it was part of being in the upper class society. She then walked outside, only to see the butler waiting for her.
"Miss, I'm to escort you to your room," He said. Kyouko smirked.
"Since when did demons start taking orders from children?" She asked him. Sebastian's face remained unfazed by what she said, but he was stunned at how she knew he was in fact a demon.
"What gave it away?" He asked, curious.
"Nothing. By the way, is this place always so…chaotic?" She asked as Sebastian had begun to lead her to her room.
"Why do you ask?"
"It seems like you're going to have a bit of trouble tomorrow, at least in the morning. And as for your master…well at least nothing bad is going to happen to him for a while," Kyouko said nonchalantly.
"How would you know such things?" Sebastian asked. He wasn't getting any answers.
"I just do. Thank you for being such a gentleman," Kyouko said and entered her room. Oddly enough, Sebastian never pointed out which room was hers, but she had entered the right one.
"Did you take care of the girl, Sebastian?" Ciel asked as he was being tucked into bed by him.
"Of course. She is rather strange though," Sebastian told Ciel, as he was finishing up.
"How so? She seems like a dirty commoner," Ciel said, as he got comfortable.
"She seems to know things," Sebastian said. If she were here to harm his master, he would stop her.
"Well, we can find out who she really is tomorrow. For now, let me go to sleep," Ciel said. Sebastian turned off the light to his room and left. This strange girl was all he could think about.
